About us

TAVERHAM NURSERY CENTRE WAS FOUNDED 40 YEARS AGO AND IS STILL RUN BY THE FAMILY THAT FOUNDED IT

Taverham Garden Centre, located some 6 miles to the north west of Norwich, is known for its high-quality products, extensive stock lines, competitive prices and first-class customer service. The business has been trading for over 30 years under the same ownership/management, and in that time has established an excellent reputation both at a local level and throughout East Anglia.

Ken Dye and Roy Drane started the business in 1982, supplying strawberry plants and Christmas trees to commercial markets. In the early 1980s, the business began to expand and product lines diversified into sales of plants, peat, compost and basic gardening items. This expansion encouraged the retail side of the business and was to see the beginnings of that strong local customer base that is the core of the business today. The name Taverham Garden Centre is widely known and frequently recommended by word of mouth by local people and visitors to the area.
